Lauri Kilpiö's (b. 1974) Six Winter Scenes for two pianos (2022) was commissioned by Joensuu Conservatory. The nostalgic memories and different impressions of winter take the technical abilities of the performers into consideration. The short, hazy movement I Blue Dusk Descends brings the winter. The other move-ments include the bright movement II Echoes in a Snowy Forest, the toccata-style movement III Ride through a Blizzard, the glitteringly impressionistic movement IV Ice Skating on the River, the enigmatic movement V Birds on the Snowdrift, and the energetic movement VI Woken Bear Rock, which brings the spring.The suite can be performed in its entirety at a time, or it is also possible to perform only individual movements of it. The same piano duo may perform the whole work, or the performers may also change between the movements.Duration: 14'Osat / MovementsI Sininen hämärä laskeutuu | Blue Dusk DescendsII Kaiut lumisessa metsässä |Echoes in a Snowy ForestIII Ratsastus läpi pyryn | Ride through a BlizzardIV Luistelu joella | Ice Skating on the RiverV Linnut hangella | Birds on the SnowdriftVI Heränneen karhun rock | Woken Bear RockThis product includes one performance score (both piano parts in the same score).

Suite No. 1 is a hymn to the divinity of the dance. The piece explores all possibilities of extreme rhythm, harmony and orchestration in order to place special emphasis on the piano as a solo instrument with all its possibilities: from percussion instrument to lyric simplicity. At the end, the composer quotes the style of his scores together with the ancient tragedies in an epilogue with prominent signals from the wind section.

Igor Stravinsky originally wrote the Danses concertantes for a California-based entertainment orchestra. However, the five movementsare more than purely orchestral dances. The piece is reminiscent of a ballet suite. The two marches at the beginning and end mark the entrance (prologue) and departure (epilogue) of the dancers, with two of the middle movements - 'pas d'action' and 'pas de deux' obviously alluding to the ballet. The arrangement for two pianos by Ingolf Dahl is not just a reduction of the orchestral writing,but deliberately intended as an independent concert version.
